While Sven Botman ended up giving in to the advances of Newcastle (same concentrated Renato Sanches with PSG), AC Milan continues its search to recruit a central defender to replace the starter Alessio Romagnoli. As we announced previously, the Rossoneri have worked on several scenarios to support Pierre Kalulu, Fikayo Tomori and Simon Kjaer next season.
After having proposed more than thirty million euros for Botman, the Lombard leaders could try their luck on another leading element (Bremer from Torino is very popular), but we are heading more towards a change of strategy, in particular in order to benefit more leeway to strengthen offensively.
It talks about Diallo
Today, the training coached by Stefano Pioli could thus put on a veteran at a lower cost or outright bet on a hope evolving abroad, but there is also an in-between. With this in mind, Milan has resumed contact with the entourage of Parisian Abdou Diallo (26), who had already been approached last January. Linked until June 2024 with the club of the Capital, the Senegalese international presents the desired profile. The native of Tours is available, but the formula for the operation could possibly pose a problem.
Milan wants a loan
Indeed, the Milanese leave on a paid loan with mandatory OA, while the Parisians dream of a dry transfer around 30 M€. Talks are set to continue in the coming days, with the former Monaco and Dortmund player producing more around €18-20m. Note that Thilo Kehrer (PSG) and Axel Disasi (Monaco) are other names mentioned on the side of Milanello.
